Ive found that the newer fiberglass tubs flex more w/ bigger engines, yet the flotation of the cast iron leads for some wet foot days. Overall w/ a proper HP to Size ratio Im sure you will have a nice carpin rig. Besides if that fails, attach concrete to your shoes and then you can have a rig w/ viewfinder capabilities.

I'm sure someone in the north wouldn't understand it, but SEC football is year round down here. What you have is a network of individuals who work 9-5 jobs in a cubicle, but they really play on the computer - UA has message boards that people pay to post on that register sometimes in excess of 100 new pages each day of people talking about football - even in the offseason.

On top of this, farking (which is a internet term used to describe someone who takes random pictures and edits them via photoshop, normally as a joke) is a big time hobby for these guys. I have seen versions of that pic with at least 5 different SEC logos, both on the shirt and the hat...I think MSU, UT, AU, Bama, and Florida.
